Had a huge upswing from Sep to Dec, build up my BR and moved up stakes. I am in a 15 thou downsing now, there's probably some decent amount of spew in the latter part of the year mixed with inevitable regression to the mean.
Since my buyins are polarized (anywhere from $12 to $200 majors) and my MTT game still has leaks I expect it to go for a while.
As long as my BR is cushy, I ll be alright though. But if I start feeling insecure about it, it's going to become a heavy burden.
